THE.. CAUSE OK BILIOUS complaints AND ATUODE OF CURE.—A well regulated and proportionate quaiitily.of bib on the stomach is nlWttys requisite for the promotion of sound health—it stimulaics digestion, nnd keeps-tht intestinal canal free from nil obstructions. On the inferior surface of the liver is n peculiar bladder, in which the bib is first preserved, being formed by tbe liver from the blood. Thence it passes into the stomach nod intestines, and regulates the.indigestion. Thus we sec when there is a deficiency ofbilc, the body is constantly costive. On the other hand, nn overabundance of bile, causes frequent nausea in (be stomach; am) often, promotes very severe attacks of.disease, which sometimes cud in death.' Fevers are always preceded by symptoms'of a disordered stomach; us arc also scrofulous disorders, and all sympathetic functional, organic or fetir|Ic diseases. From tbe same cause, the natural nnd healthy action of the heart, and the whole vascular tysten; is impaired and reduced below its natural standard:; as exhibited ia palpitations, languid pulse, torptn of the limbs, syncope, und even death itself, )V consequence of un overabundance? of a peculiar offensive substance to the digestive‘organs. ' The approach of bilious dicascs is at all times attended by decided symptoms of an existing diseased state of the stomach and bowels; i. c, with those signs which ore known to point out their contents to be of a morbid irritating nature; but whenever the alimentary canal happens to he loaded with irritating matter, some derangement of the healthy operation, either of the general system, or of some particular organ of the body is the certain result; oud^when this state happens to be united with any other symptom* of disease, its effects are always thereby much aggravated, 'I'bo progress of organic obstruction js often so rapid as scarcely to ndmit of time for the application of such aid os is to be offered by art, jet, in genera), the premonitory symptoms of gastno load arc perceptible for a day or two previop* tailhe paroxism!, a period, when the mosi efficacious assistance may be given, by unloading the stomach i nd alimentary cnnal of its irritating nnd th is reducing the susceptibility of di-case, t MOFFAT’S LIFE MEDICINES, should always be taken in the early slaves of bilious complaints; and If persevered in strictly according to ttradirecUonq will positively effect a cure. .
